14.B

15.Three．

16.dividedivide解析：根據(jù)上下文語境，這里是“分為”，divide…upinto意為“把…劃分為”。所以此處應(yīng)填動詞“divide”。

17.atat解析：某大學(xué)的教授，應(yīng)為“aprofessorat…university”，所以答案為介詞“at”。

18.dodo解析：解析見上題，為了避免與前面的know重復(fù)，這里可以換做do。故答案為do。

19.takestakes解析：要注意時態(tài)，這里意為“占據(jù)”，所以所以此處應(yīng)填“takes”。

20.butbut解析：此句意為“30歲的人表現(xiàn)出非常不同的握筆方式，…超過40歲的人都統(tǒng)一用三個手指握筆?！憋@然，此空處表轉(zhuǎn)折。

21.thosethose解析：本句的意思是“他們不認(rèn)為自己比別的不重要的人更好、更優(yōu)秀?！边@里比較的是down-to-earthpersons和別人。故答案為those。

22.byby解析：由日本政府收集的數(shù)據(jù)。考查被動語態(tài)的用法，“由…”用介詞“by”。所以此處應(yīng)填“by”。

23.whichwhich解析：由37題解析可知此空應(yīng)為一個引導(dǎo)定語從句的詞，即which，其后的定語修飾“several(typesofcontamination)”。

24.bringbring解析：通過前一句話“suchadreamercanbebroughtbacktoearth．”中的brought可以知道，這里應(yīng)該填bring，表示“把…帶到”。故答案為bring。

25.youngyoung解析：本文均是在講年輕的腦力工作者，故此空所應(yīng)填的用于修飾“collegegraduates”的詞也應(yīng)是“年輕的”。

26.C解析：本文第二段中提到“…becausealltheastronautshavecontractswithanAmericanmagazineunderconditionsforbiddinganyunauthorizeddisclosuresabouttheirprivatelives.”

27.A解析：由第二段最后一句話可知A項正確。B項不能從文中推知。C項文中沒有提及。男性工人的健康在法律中是得到考慮了的，故D項不正確。

28.B解析：第一段中，作者說自己想保存文件，但是光標(biāo)不動了，死機(jī)了。只有把電池拔出強(qiáng)行關(guān)機(jī)，所以排除A，D。C中說電腦拒絕工作，不合題意。所以本題應(yīng)選B。

29.C解析：由C中第三段第一句“Regularhighstandardperformancesinmusicanddrama，publicspeakinganddebatingareimportantpreparationforadultlife．”可知，該學(xué)校很重視培養(yǎng)學(xué)生的語言天賦。

30.D解析：在第三段中女主人公意識到也許在四點的服務(wù)的原因是經(jīng)過精心策劃的而不是隨意粗魯?shù)牧?xí)慣，假期小費從隨意的一句謝謝發(fā)展成為黑社會的保護(hù)勒索，所以作者是被迫的給假期小費的。因此正確答案為D。

31.B解析：從文章的第三段可以看出，“Homepricesareholdingsteadyinmostregions．”作者在這一段主要說明房子等不動產(chǎn)的價格、利潤等方面，所以“the$4millionto$10millionrange”說的是不動產(chǎn)。故應(yīng)選B。

32.A解析：第二段中指出“…whenbrainandbodyareactive”，大腦積極運轉(zhuǎn)是眼珠快速轉(zhuǎn)動的主要特征，且在第三、四段又再次說明。選項B“被研究者很快的反應(yīng)速度”，選項C“復(fù)雜的記憶模式”和選項D“前一天事件的重現(xiàn)”都不是眼球快速運動的主要特征。故應(yīng)選A。

33.B解析：talkshop意為“談公事”。

34.C解析：從第一段最后一句話“Botticelli’sworkremainedoutsideofacceptedtaste，pleasingneitheramateurobserversnorconnoisseurs．”可知，作者講述了那些評論家，不管是業(yè)余的還是職業(yè)的，他們都不滿意它的作品風(fēng)格。所以這個詞的意思可能是“對作品做出評論的那些業(yè)余人士”。故應(yīng)選C。

35.B解析：由第一段可知，兩人是因為肥胖而被送進(jìn)醫(yī)院的，故B項正確。A、C項文章中未提到。兩個病人不能證明fatlash運動高漲。故D項是錯誤的。

36.A解析：由A中的第三段“WashingtonistheheadquartersofallthebranchesoftheAmericanfederalsystem：Congress，theSupremeCourtandthePresidency．”可知答案為A。

37.EE解析：由上下兩段可知，只有E放在此處可使上下文銜接。

38.C解析：由全文可以推斷，要指出犯罪率下降的確切原因是很困難的。

39.C解析：由C中的第一段第一句話“Chicago，thesecondlargestcityinpopulationintheUnitedStates，”可知答案為C。

40.B解析：由B中“Thesesellforanythingbetween￡2millionand￡5million．”，每套住房銷售價格在200萬英鎊到500萬英鎊之間不等，極其昂貴。所以此處答案為B。

41.B文章第三段最后兩句話“Moreover，itbecomesunworkable．．．theInternetdoesnotknowgeographicboundaries，andcompaniesandindividualscannotbeexpectedtocomplywithdiffering，andattimesconflicting，privacyrules．”這說明各州制定的法律是不好實施的，因為網(wǎng)絡(luò)是不具有地域限制的。這種法律不能僅僅限制在某個州的范圍之內(nèi)。故應(yīng)選B。

42.A由此空上下文可以看出，A填入使上下兩段意思銜接。

43.D由D中的“ValparaisoUniversitycombinesliberalartswithprofessionalstudiesandpromotesservicetoothers”可知。

44.D文章的第一段最后一句話“Evenwhenanti—academicarthistorians．．．，Botticelli’sworkremainedoutsideofacceptedtaste，．．．”，就算當(dāng)時很多正統(tǒng)的藝術(shù)風(fēng)格被批判，波提切利的作品也沒有引起重視，認(rèn)為他的作品不隨人們的口味，既滿足不了專業(yè)人士的品位，也不能滿足業(yè)余人士的欣賞要求。這里的undervalue的意思是“低估，沒有重視”，故應(yīng)選D。

45.A由A中的最后一句話“…takeonalleconomy—wideperspectivetodrawlessonsforagriculture，trade，landuseandtaxpolicy．”可知。2022-2023年廣東省茂名市公共英語五級(筆試)模擬考試(含答案)學(xué)校:________班級:________姓名:________考號:________
